Wednesday February 10, 2021 15:30 - 17:00 DAY ZERO
Presenter: Shahnaz Anin Haaq
Contact person: Shahnaz Amin Haaq, Department of Psychosocial Sciences, UiB
Type of event: Physical and digital event
Today, we are experiencing that:
- lion’s share of fighting gender inequality lies on the girls and their parents.
- social practices are by and large are failing to include boys and their parents in establishing gender equality.
- educating boys how to give, and that they are nothing more but equal, remains ignored in the process of educating girls how to claim and that they are nothing less but equal.
- males are privileged with many unwritten rights and we all have taken these as granted and we are naturalizing these rights.
This workshop is an opportunity to understand causes and consequences of such inequal practices and how can we put an end to such inequalities.
This event is relevant for:
- SDG 5: Gender Equality
- SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities
